Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Recognized the world over by frequent flyers and armchair travelers alike. Eyewitness Travel Guides are the most colorful and comprehensive guides on the market. With beautifully commissioned photographs and spectacular 3-D aerial views revealing the charm of each destination, these amazing travel guides show what others only tell.

Book News Annotation:

This title acts as a travel guide to little-known areas of France, though the illustrations are so numerous and gorgeous that it functions doubly as a coffee-table book. Sections are arranged geographically by destinations (Paris, Versailles, Aveyron, and the Loire), places to stay, food and drink (including Provence and Brittany), and arts and culture. The occasional street-level maps are nicely detailed. No index is provided. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
